James McAvoy, Ron Perlman To Star In The Hobbit?
Budgets must be tight at The Hobbit. Why else would they want a tiny, wee actor like James McAvoy to play the lead role of Bilbo Baggins unless they wanted to save on the special effects? The annoying Scottish star has been heavily linked to be the star of the heavily-anticipated movie, which will be directed by Guillermo Del Toro and produced by Peter Jackson. And, you have to say, he would be perfect as a hobbit. Well, he's already about 3ft tall.

Guillermo del Toro Officially Fairly Hobbity
It's official - Guillermo del Toro, the Bo Selecta Peter Jackson, is the director of the two upcoming Hobbit movies. It's been a long time coming, but finally New Line Cinema and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios have announced that they're packing Guillermo del Toro off to New Zealand for the next four years so he can concentrate on making The Hobbit and its sequel, The Hobbit 2: The Hobbit In Space. It doesn't take a genius to see why Guillermo del Toro was chosen to direct the Hobbit movies - his flair for visual invention as demonstrated in Pan's Labyrinth and Hellboy will really bring a sense of panache to his task of filming a bunch of midgets walking across the side of a mountain for six and a half titting hours.

The Hobbit Gets All Weird And Mexican And Stuff
The Hobbit will definitely be coming to cinemas, and it'll probably have more creepy scrawny Mexican eye-hand monsters than you remembered.
That's because Guillermo Del Toro - director of Pan's Labyrinth and Blade II - is reportedly in talks to take on both proposed Hobbit movies when they eventually get written and made.
And Guillermo Del Toro has certainly won over the fans, too - not because of his creative vision or anything like that, mind you, but because he looks exactly like Peter Jackson in a Bo Selecta mask.
